? Probe

? measures a surface and leaves the source as it was. @ situates a viewpoint, which is a different sign. The runtime calls it wonder; probe is its public alias.

Ask first. A probe shows what a surface holds before anything commits to changing it.

^"probe_contract"{

Contract

In hand

Ask, filter, or reveal. A missed target explains its absence, and the source stays as it was.

What it means

The mark is an open question. After you look, the alternatives you passed over can still be sitting there.

Brace Physics

The brace opens only to the seam. Curiosity stays low charge until a later commit.

Before and after

Prefix ?x primes the next unit as question. Postfix x? marks uncertainty that remains after reading.

?["probe_example"]

Example

?["What changes when the block becomes interactive?"]{
 fallback: "show inspectable meaning before action"
}

Take this example apart in the parser: each mark becomes a token you can inspect, and the parser says whether the source rebuilds exactly.
